      Simulation of the response of ancient columns under harmonic and earthquake excitations 

      Komodromos, Petros I.; Papaloizou, Loizos; Polycarpou, Panayiotis (2008)
      In this paper, the seismic behavior of ancient monumental structures with monolithic or multi-drum classical columns is investigated. In particular, the Discrete Element Methods (DEM) are utilized in the study of ancient ...
